Abstract generation in progress

AI agents can now autonomously manage decentralized finance (DeFi) liquidity pools, execute flash loans, and optimize yield strategies, surpassing human intermediaries. Products launched by PancakeSwap and Uniswap Labs enable these agents to operate across multiple blockchains in real-time, leveraging market speed and 24/7 operation. However, this autonomy also increases existing risks; between 2024 and 2025, DeFi vulnerabilities caused losses of over $3.1 billion, and AI agents introduce new vulnerabilities such as oracle manipulation and front-running. As the AI agent market is expected to grow from $7.84 billion in 2025 to $52.62 billion in 2030, security infrastructure—including tools from companies like CyberArk—is being rapidly developed.
